Wonderful for a resto shaman. Good bit of Mp5 and the all-important haste, with two yellow sockets for 20 haste gems. I'll be picking these up as soon as I can.

No socket bonus? Hopefully it will get one when these puppies go live.

As an aside, I wonder whether these things are flat soled, to make shuffling easier. The running man is so much cooler when your shoes don't grip the ground.

Edit: They are live, and still no socket bonus.

These are amazing for holy pals as well. SP, haste, and mp5 (our current favored stats) with 2 yellow sockets (intellect) for an mp5 boost (which is nicer than the usual spellpower boosts). Was a pleasant surprise I wasn't expecting tonight in 10-man.

For me these still lose out to Boots of the Frozen Seed as a resto shaman, you lose 21 haste and 46 crit rating at the gain of 35 (39 socketed) mp5.

The mp5 you lose is made up by the crit rating + extra throughput from the haste and crit totalling more water shield procs from critical heals.

Although i picked these up last night, i chose to stick with the leather boots.

Also these are obtained later in icecrown so you will have easier access to the leather boots.

I'm still going to keep this in the bank, hopefully soon a fight will come along where i need more mana than actual throughput of heals, but for the meantime i am keeping these off.
